Since Aristotle's era, scientists are trying and finding thermodynamic explanations as per why warm water cools quicker than cold water, assertion known as Mpemba effect that challenges common sense.
¿Sabias que el agua caliente se congela antes que la fría? Se conoce como efecto Mpemba, que se produce cuando agua y otro cuerpo al que las moléculas se agarran en el proceso de congelación, están al menos a 30ºC de diferencia 🧐🧊
In Luba-style art, an object's beauty affects how well it works. While bowl-bearing figures had many possible uses, a royal diviner likely used this well-carved image of a woman carrying a bowl in rituals.

Strands of imported glass beads encircle her waist and neck, and dangle from her hair. The alternating white and blue beads may symbolize the moon and Mbidi Kiluwe, a culture hero linked to royal practice and smithing. While much Luba-style art depicts women—who are societally important—men created and owned the majority of such works.
